Our Price
  • Located in the south of Tuscany, the small town of Montalcino is perched on a hilltop at 1,800 feet and overlooks the rolling foothills that comprise its modest 3,000 acres of vineyards. With 120 days of sunshine and the moderating effects of Monte Amiata to the south, this is Tuscany's warmest and driest subregion; perfect for bold red grapes and wines!

A direct clone of Tuscany's famous Sangiovese grape, Brunello is named for the brownish (bruno) tint of its skin. It's the only grape permitted in Brunello di Montalcino, and it produces intensely aromatic red wines that are known for their tart, black cherry and floral (violet) notes, with chocolatey tannins and a sturdy structure that can age for decades.

Le Gode is a small family-owned winery with just 15 acres dedicated to making organic Brunello. The hill of Montosoli is regarded as a Grand Cru area of Montalcino and the 2018 Vigna Montosoli is earthy and herbal, with black cherry, Earl Grey tea and licorice on the nose and finish.

Celestino Pecci has been in operation since 1968 and is still family-run. Their 2017 Brunello is aged in neutral oak for 40 months and then in bottle for six more, and is a round, juicy mouthful of black cherry, cola and vanilla bean.
